Why would you post something like this? I mean I can see me asking this question to myself, but what's the odds of one of us knowing who's motor it is just from an engine bay shot. We would need more pics of the car to even come close to telling you.

Well, since it's a right hand drive car, you'd probably have a better guess than us.

It's a single turbo RHD from Japan. You should know better. By the way, nobody will know anything about the engine since it's hidden inside the engine bay. And even if you see it, it wouldnt help because you're just looking at the outside.

Hey can man I see what yur talking about they are being asses to you
I've talked with mightyslash before and he's real cool I don't know about the rest of the guys though
they must think that this question is pretty unreasonable to talk like that
so good luck finding it and don't take it too personal sometimes people can be asses on a forum but face to face it's totally different
later

Ya it`s the HPI engine dampener. I was mostly looking for who did the piping and **** looks sweet. Actually I know the guy is in Japan, I found it on a Japanese web-page.. COOL if anyone finds out, just shoot me a PM... Thanks to the cool RX7 drivers... MOST of us are. Well the ones that can drive... PEACE OUT!!!

My benefits were, engine torqueing too much, lost power. Keeps me from cracking intercooler piping and breaking motor mounts which is easy to do with this car..
